Cubs Edge Dodgers 7-6, Crow-Armstrong Shines

The Chicago Cubs secured a 7-6 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers, completing a two-game sweep and clinching the season series, thanks in large part to the stellar play of Pete Crow-Armstrong. Crow-Armstrong, a Los Angeles native, delivered three hits, including a home run and four RBIs in Wednesday's game, and has been especially effective against his hometown team, posting four home runs and nine RBIs across the season series. The Cubs' offense has been a driving force, leading the majors in runs per game and propelling the team to several high-scoring victories despite a tough early schedule. Crow-Armstrong's performance has garnered praise from teammates and opponents alike, with his all-around contributions in hitting, baserunning, and defense standing out. Chicago's successful homestand and Crow-Armstrong's breakout have positioned the team as a formidable contender early in the season. The Cubs now look ahead to divisional play after triumphing over top teams like the Dodgers, Diamondbacks, and Padres.
